Cant make my mind up

Always wanted a 911 and went to see a couple years ago but semi-retirement says I cannot afford to run one so

the missus says get a boxster and get the porsche thing out of your system!
had Imprezas before but i'm thinkin an Evo 7 would be a laugh esp if it had 300+bhp but a little scared of servicing costs

Not sure what you are doing in the Motorsport section BUT it has to be a 911.

And a proper one too.

If you could afford to run an EVO or a Boxster you can probably afford to run a 996 too.

to me it isn't a mid life crisis as I have had mid-high performance cars and only in recent years had a more suitable workhorse for my needs
so after a few years I want my toy back

not sure I could stretch to a 996 but would be my no.1 choice

probably looking at about 7k

am on the mlr site after having a VR4 about 12 years ago but get a biased views on specific car related sites

I think I prefer the evo 7 over the boxster

I went for a Z4M.

I thought maybe an affair would be fun, but i'm too ugly and a bit smelly as well.

Stay away from expensive push-bikes and luminous lycra, you will look like a complete cock
